#97533 - any experience w. Input stat. in Bascom |
Hi ,
Has anyone here used the Input statement in Bascom-8051 ? It seems that i can't make the Timeout option to work ! :( The Help says : INPUT [" prompt" ] , var [ , varn ] [ NOECHO ] [ TIMEOUT = xx]
Remarks Prompt An optional string constant printed before the prompt character. Var,varn A variable to accept the input value or a string. NOECHO Disables input echoed back to the Comport. TIMEOUT Optional delay time. When you specify the delay time, the routine will return when no input data is available after the specified time. No timer is used but a long is used to count down. Here is the code that i'm using : Cls Print "Hi ;)" Upperline : Lcd "WAITING FOR HOST TO BOOT..." While Scmd <> "ACK" Print "A" Input Scmd Noecho Timeout=1000 Print "timedout" Wend Existance of the timeout option doesn't make any difference , it just stops and waits forever until an Enter is pressed.i think this is not the way that timeout should be working ? Didn't got any respone in Bascom forum :( Best Regards : Farshid J.H. |
